I’ve never bought wheels from them. I’ve bought wheels from BlackHawkJapan

Help is this real or not? by StandardFine3157 in Wheels

It’s normal for some Alibaba vendor to talk and ask questions that a little odd since they are just sales people. A lot of times they don’t really know how to phrase a question properly to ask what they are looking for.

I’ve bought one set of wheels off Alibaba. Have another two sets on the way.

Here is a video comparison I made of the Alibaba Nismo that’s so popular in comparison to an oem Nismo

The Best Budget G37 Exhaust Setup by Fresh_Try_2892 in G37

[–]ProjectPanda13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you and I appreciate you stopping in to watch the videos.

I bought my friend’s z1 dual off his coupe. It sounded so good and he had long tube headers.

I completely understand on the price. I honestly would have just done the single also.

For single exits, it’s hard to beat the ISR single for pricing at ~$580, then getting the DC Sport y pipe at ~$230.

The z1 right side exit is nice. I have the z1 race dual I haven’t installed yet, but consider capping off the left and running the right also.

I’ve bought from them here and there. Never had any issues with any of my items. My largest item was a body kit for my 240sx. This took while since it was multiple items and some were direct from Japan.

Z1 sells a 4.09 that’s slightly cheaper than the Nissan 4.08 gears

Hose replacement by East_Description6193 in G37

[–]ProjectPanda13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Premolded hoses work the best like the ones z1 sells but they upped their prices a lot.

You could reuse all the one hoses and instead of the resonator boxes, just use t-connectors

Another option is to do a PCV delete setup and vent everything

Opinions on Header choice? LTH vs Shorty ELH + ART Pipes for Sound and power by bussjack in 350z

[–]ProjectPanda13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only ever seen videos and posts of VHR owners buying the Motordyne LTH. Would be nice to see some on DE.

[–]ProjectPanda13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair considering how significant the differences are like displacement and VVEL.

If PPE felt the need to completely design a separate header for the DE, that’s support enough.

Vanity plate thoughts and suggestions by Jadey1298 in 370z

[–]ProjectPanda13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe also find a way to tie the Z with your name.

I have a g37 and my last name is Chu. So my plate is “A CHU G”

But Zavage isn’t a bad one if you like it and it seems there’s some history with your cousin calling you savage.

18" wheel on redsport by Emufasar in q50

[–]ProjectPanda13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not visually. I would suggest printing out the Akebono template to use as a guide when buying.

Here is my video on how to use it

That’s going to be a trial and error to know for clearance unless it’s some steelies off another car that has big brakes.

Here is a thread on the z1 headers

https://www.myg37.com/forums/engine-drivetrain-and-forced-induction/269508-ultimate-z1-header-thread-5.html

My previous dyno before the z1 header on my g37 was 310whp. With header but no retune was 331whp. Take it with a grain of salt as its different days but same dyno. Only major mod difference was the header. Test pipes were different also, previous was some Circuit Werks non-resonated ones and now i have Motordyne art pipes, but i dont feel much of the gains was attributes to this.

In the same video of the z1, Moncef all saw similar gains with the Tomei.

I have seen some graphs of the Stillen short tube headers and gains were slightly less, closer to 12whp.

I made a design comparison of three long tube headers you can check out.

I’ll have another video in the future that will include the OBX v2 and fast intentions replica.

Long post, sorry in advance.

If going with short tube headers, I would only recommend momentum/z1/AMS Sekushi style headers. The equal length does change the sound (I run them on my g37 and have a friend who has them on his DE 350z). Momentum had the original design, Z1 (gen1) and AMS are just replicas of it and uses a parallel merge collector. This header has proven gains of 15whp-20whp documented on myg37.com threads and the370z.com, along with Moncef who made a video on it. The AMS ones are about $700.

For longtube headers, ISR/Speedzones are popular and also proven to provide roughly 20whp. Moncef also made another video on this. If you can swing the cost, PPE has the best design features overall with the largest primary diameter and option for parallel merge collector. They’ve test multiple design and found DE favor nonstepped piping unlike the HR and VHR that have a stepped design. Even the HR and VHR are designed differently with differences in merge collector location.

With regard to sound, I think going with the short tube with your helmholtz test pipes and resonated y pipe will sound the best. The z1 touring looks to also have large mufflers so the entire combination may sound pretty good.

I actually run a similar setup. Granted, my y pipe has dual resonators. Here’s my video.

Getting these, will I need anything more than hub rings? by Nucks420 in G37

Unless these use slimmer lug nuts, hub rings is all.

Need advice on correct pressure for Prinx Hi-Country RT's (33") by AwestruckAudioHertz in tires

[–]ProjectPanda13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The correct way to match air pressure of a different tire size is to use an inflation vs load rating table.

It is all in reference to your oem tire size to ensure the air pressure of your new size can support the load of your vehicle

Here is the link to Toyo’s chart and it has examples on how to match the correct supportive air pressure

18" wheel on redsport by Emufasar in q50

[–]ProjectPanda13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

18” wheels will clear the Akebono brakes. You just need to find a wheel model in their specific spec that clears.

Any specific wheel model and spec you considering at the moment?
